It's not a choice, but there are elements of choice at times in it, sometimes only in how or how much to work against it.
I'd say the area of choice is greater or smaller as one's depression becomes less or more. The choice is constrained at best, and seems to vanish pretty quickly.
Also, there's a lot of luck or chance in whether you meet someone who can help you ( a Pdoc or T or other mentor or friend), too, even if you're looking.
